It’s hard to believe but the world’s oldest dot-com address still
exists, and it’s turning 30 on Sunday.

The domain name, Symbolics.com, is still accessible,
although there are barely any functions available.

According to
CNNMoney, the domain name was first bought by a company with
the same name, Symbolics, on March 15, 1985.

It was a company best-known for developing a computer language
called “Lisp,” and even went public at one point. But the company
ended up filing for bankruptcy in 1993, and now it’s privately
held.

In 2009, Symbolics sold the domain to a company called XF.com
Investments for an undisclosed amount, and moved its site to
symbolics-dks.com
instead.

like.Symbolics

XF.com Investment kept the site alive and its CEO Aron Meystedt
told NetworkWorld that Symbolics.com still gets several
hundred to a several thousands visitors a day, depending on how
well the site is “circulated on social media and news blogs.”
